Cheating To Win

Paralympics-style:
"The tactics used to bring the pain that leads to increased blood pressure are startling, too. According to BBC sources, they run the gamut from not releasing urine to cracking or breaking toes with a hammer. In between, athletes have tried sitting on a drawing pin, using tightened leg straps and sitting on their own scrotum."
A lot of able-bodied athletes take a lot of health risks to compete, so it's hard to see this as any worse. But do they have the potential of making the same big time money for excellent performance? An honest question.
